Figure 1-53. SAME70 Xplained Ultra + PL460-EK

PL460-EK is connected to EXT1 connector (J602) of SAME70 Xplained Ultra. A 15V DC jack must be plugged into PL460-EK in order to supply the power for PLC transmission. Since the enclosure of PL460-EK does not fit with SAME70 Xplained Ultra, the user must be very careful if the PLC wire is connected to the mains because not all the board is isolated from mains (PLC signal). For more information about PL460-EK refer to its user guide.

The Debug USB connector (J300) of SAME70 Xplained Ultra can be used to:
  • Flash/debug the SAME70 device with the on-board Microchip Embedded Debugger (EDBG)
The Target USB connector (J200) of SAME70 Xplained Ultra can be used to:
  • Manage the MAC-RT PLC & Go application through the serial console. The baud-rate in the PC terminal emulator can be configured to any value because it is USB, not UART.
In order to use the Target USB, the J203 jumper must be connected between VBUS and PB08.
